1
00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:05,520
Speaker 1: Welcome to your diary episode. Here's the thing. I'm a

2
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: bit of a nomad, so these episodes come to you

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: from wherever I'm living or traveling to at the time,

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: so I'll share with you what's going on in my world.

5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 1: From book tours, animal encounters, delish meals, nature adventures, health

6
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 1: discoveries to swimming in hidden Byron Bay beaches. Come with

7
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: me as I share my adventures with you. Good morning, Gangles. Oh,

8
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: I guess it's good just good morning for me, it

9
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: may not be good morning for you. I'm recording this

10
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 1: at six thirty one am in the morning because I

11
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 1: have a big day. I'm working at a yog studio

12
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: at the moment, and I'm basically in training to manage,

13
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: which means I have crazy hours at the moment, which

14
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: is really exciting. But in order to record this, Potter Rooney,

15
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: I'm gotta set the nice and early. So update, We've

16
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: got updates. I did a Q and a box on Insta.

17
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:13,759
Speaker 1: I've collected some food reviews for you. The week that

18
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: was so oh my goodness. I feel like I feel

19
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: like my brain is a little bit of a blur.

20
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: But basically you probably know this. I've been teaching yoags

21
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: the whole time I've been in La. I think Matt

22
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: and I talked about this really openly in Monday's La

23
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 1: Tour Guide. It's a really expensive city to live in

24
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: and I was getting a little bit sick of bleeding

25
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:40,839
Speaker 1: Australian savings and so I thought there was an opportunity

26
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: to help out at a studio temporarily and stepping in

27
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: as a manager. And that's what I'm doing. And what

28
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: I love about America is the training is so intensive.

29
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: But when I say intensive, I mean intensive, like really

30
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: really long days, but making sure that you understand all

31
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: like the back end operation, all the front selling operations

32
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: so fascinating. And I love the way that human psychology

33
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: is studied and then taught. So I'm learning loads. I

34
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: love it, but it's a lot of hours and so

35
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: like even in my lunch breaks, I've been like whipping

36
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: out my laptop and writing articles for Australia in the meantime.

37
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: So I'm I'm loving it, but I'm also like, ooh,

38
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: this is a little bit of a juggling act. So

39
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,519
Speaker 1: you're getting a very early morning pod. You usually get

40
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: like a post coffee kind of like super chilled pod

41
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: and then as soon as I was to hit stop

42
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: recording this episode, I jet and I need to be

43
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: in the car by seven am for another full, huge,

44
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: twelve hour day of training. So bear with me if

45
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: my brain is a little bit of a jumble. The

46
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: great news is I've been doing all of my training

47
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: in Beverly Hills, and there is an Air war one

48
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 1: five minutes from the Yoak studio. So I've tried some

49
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 1: new things a good old air one, haven't I just

50
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: And it's the air one that I first ever went to.

51
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: It's the one that's on the outside of the grove.

52
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: So for me, it feels like the Oga one. I'm

53
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: sure it's not, or I actually have no idea whether

54
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: it is or not, but I have because I get

55
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: an hour lunch break, so I've been running down and

56
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: getting the vegan taco salad. I've told you about that

57
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: one before. It's like instead of meat, they use like

58
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: a spiced Mexican walnuts. I have tried the cult noodle salad,

59
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: which was amazing. I have tried the mad rap which

60
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: again you've heard me yaran on and on about. That's

61
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: essentially they use collard greens instead of a rap like

62
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: a tortilla rap, and it's got their famous kale white

63
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: bean salad inside the rap and mustard. But the other day,

64
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: the other day, I tried a new one, so colard

65
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: green rap, but it was turkey mustard, mayo, pickled veggies,

66
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: and it was really my flavor profile. It was really

67
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: really really nice, a little bit of cheese like I

68
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: don't know, I want to say picker, I don't know

69
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: how to say that cheese name. But anyway, it was

70
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: really really good. I also have tried a new brownie

71
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: from air One that I've never tried. It's got the

72
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: mushroom changer in it. And Boss knew I had a

73
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: really really long day yesterday and so he bought me

74
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 1: another one. So we had that for dessert last night,

75
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: and last night we heat it up and I was

76
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,239
Speaker 1: just like melt in your mouth. The great thing about

77
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: One is a lot of their own branded stuff is

78
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: gluten free. Like it's not even label gluten free, it

79
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: just is gluten free. So that's kind of what I

80
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 1: love about it. I also got and I collected it

81
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: for you organic Clean Greens juice, so it's got organic cucumber, spinach, romaine, lettuce,

82
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 1: mint and lemon. That was really good. I tried and

83
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 1: not new another a Looha bar. So this flavor was

84
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: mint chocolate. So Lohar is probably the healthiest protein bar

85
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 1: that I've found here in America. It's USDA organic, non

86
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: GMO verified and b corpse certified, fourteen grams of protein

87
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: and its plant based protein. They're really yummy. They're kind

88
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,679
Speaker 1: of like gooey. You gotta be cool with texture because

89
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: it's like almost Plato texture. But I like that. But

90
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 1: I also understand probably not everyone's cup of tea, but

91
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: really yummy. And this mint chocolate one literally has like

92
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: a chocolate coat over it. So yeah, that's me, my gang,

93
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: that's me. Okay. So that's all the food stuff I've

94
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 1: been trying the other things that I have been having.

95
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: I take photos of everything, as you know. So I've

96
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: got my phone up here. I'm just gonna a little

97
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: steck of coffee because it is nice and early in

98
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: the monos. Did you hear that slap? Oh so good?

99
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: All right? Oh yep, that's a dress I really want

100
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 1: to get. I love that that's part of my face. Oh.

101
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: Matt has found this hack. He's been buying these traded

102
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 1: Joe's tortilla that rounds and if we don't use them

103
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 1: all because they like come in a pack like twenty

104
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 1: or something, he cuts them up and pops in the

105
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: fry pan with a bit of olive oil and Mexican

106
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: spice combo. Oh my goodness. Ten out of ten. And

107
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: we had our mate Daisy O for dinner a couple

108
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: of nights ago with a beautiful puppuccinos and he made

109
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: them as a starter and then we made our black

110
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: bean salad that we make all the time and then

111
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: put chicken on top. It was really really good. It

112
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: was really really good. What else bots? And I've been

113
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 1: doing pt Oh, the show that I filmed for Portal

114
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: one eared since we last spokes. That's been really exciting.

115
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: I've been building my IMDb Pro which has been a

116
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 1: lot of fun. I'm also like such a gumby and

117
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: newbie and I'm like, oh I do so if anybody

118
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: has any hot tips about IMDb pro about getting things credited,

119
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: like I've obviously worked on a lot of morning TV

120
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: in Australia and it won't credit like, it won't approve,

121
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: it keeps getting blocked, So I need to figure out

122
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: how they have to do that. But I have figured

123
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: out how to take ownership of my page, claim my page.

124
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: I have figured out how to upload photos and videos

125
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: and fun stuff. So I am kind of running my

126
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: own show at the moment, Like I'm recutting my TV

127
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: hosting real from that show I did last week. I'm

128
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: like turning into a little one man band over here,

129
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: which I'm not mad about. I love it. And then

130
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: I think I told you. I think I told you

131
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: a couple You wouldnt. Probably remember this from a couple

132
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: years ago, but I was an ambassador for Kilo in Australia.

133
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: I've just signed on as their American ambassador, which is

134
00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: really really really exciting, And now I get to write

135
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: awesome health nutrition articles for their American PR team, which

136
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: is so much fun. American deadlines, though, guys, are so

137
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: different to Ouzsie deadlines. Aussie deadlines usually get two to

138
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: three days to write an article. I got an I

139
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: got a PR request at four point thirty pm yesterday,

140
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: very end of a ten hour shift, and it was

141
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: due at twelve o'clock Eastern Standard time. I didn't look

142
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: at the Eastern sandtime. I just presumed it was LA time.

143
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: So I thought, oh, I've got till midday. I'll work

144
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 1: on it at this time in the morning. Da da da. Anyway,

145
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: it was Eastern Satay times, New York time, isn't it

146
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: four hours ahead of us in LA. So it was

147
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 1: due by nine am. And I didn't realize that, And

148
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 1: I thought I had my guy thatt it worked on

149
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: in the morning, was going to deliver it on my

150
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: lunch break. So excited on track, I'm just you know,

151
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: hacking THESTAN, not hacking thessystant you know, I'm making it

152
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: all work, get everything done. It's that one backfired on me.

153
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: But I'm so pumped that I get to do all

154
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: this fun American article writing. I love it. It's so

155
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: fun to put my nutrition brain back on and be

156
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: doing fun stuff for them. So I feel like I'm

157
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: kind of I'm in the thick of it. I'm like

158
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: kind of just like doing lots of fun stuff. I

159
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,959
Speaker 1: was talking to Daisy yesterday about astrology, and apparently loads

160
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 1: has been going on with astrology, especially around the planet Mercury,

161
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: and so apparently it's in cancer right now, and so

162
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: anyway communication and stuff is feeling like stuff like that

163
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: can happen you can misread a time or anyway. So

164
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: the good news is tomorrow is tomorrow Friday. Yes, Tomorrow,

165
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: I'm interviewing Daisy about our astrology for the rest of

166
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 1: the year. So come Monday, you'll be able to listen

167
00:09:55,040 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 1: to a pod app where we literally break down everything

168
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: for the rest of the year, like literally, the pod

169
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: is going to drop July first, and you will have

170
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: astrology and general astrology. So it doesn't matter what your

171
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: signing is, doesn't matter what you're rising is, you'll be

172
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: able to relate to it and understand it. That's why

173
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: I wanted to get Daisy on the pod. She's so

174
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: clear and easy to understand. And I don't know loads

175
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 1: about astrology other than I'm like, oh, something must be

176
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: going on with the cosmos today, That's what I'll say,

177
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: and I'll be like, what's going on, and days you

178
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: will always be like, oh, well, this is happening with

179
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: this node and this is happening. That's why you feel

180
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 1: that way. That's why it feels clunky at the moment.

181
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: So how good We're going to get Daisy on the

182
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: pod recording tomorrow coming out Monday, pumped, so strap yourselves

183
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 1: in for that. One because that will be such a

184
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: fun airp and like I said, it will be your

185
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: astrology from July first all the way through till the

186
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: end of the year. Okay, I did put a little

187
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 1: thing out on Insta and I was like, hey, I'm

188
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: recording the diary pot. Does anyone want to know anything?

189
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: Somebody wrote would love to hear your morning routine from

190
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: time to time. Now, I have four Virgos in my sign.

191
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 1: For anyone that's a Virgo they will know or if

192
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 1: they have Virgo and they're sign, they love organizations. Schedules.

193
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: It's how I roll. Haven't had that at the moment

194
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,959
Speaker 1: because I've been in training, which means my schedule changes

195
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: from day to day. And like the happy, go lucky

196
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: side of me, it's like, yeah, cool. The Virgo side

197
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: of me is like, what what do you mean, which

198
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: means my morning schedule is kind of like out the

199
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 1: window right now. It really depends on start time. But

200
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: the first thing I always do is have coffee. I

201
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: also like to make sure that I've made a cheer

202
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: putting the night before for the next day. So I've

203
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: got my coffee, I'll probably have my cheer putting an

204
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 1: hour or so later and then I'm in training like

205
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: I and to be honest, I haven't been able to

206
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: practice because my hours have been soon. But usually in

207
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 1: a dream world, it would be coffee Jim or yoga

208
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: and then the cheapoord and then I would get into

209
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: my day and work, sometimes a second coffee around that

210
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,199
Speaker 1: time that the work kicks off. But that is kind

211
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 1: of like what I would like to do. I really

212
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 1: want to bring breath work practice into my world, so

213
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: that is something that I think would really help me

214
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: at the moment while I'm moving a little bit less.

215
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 1: But yeah, the dream for me would be up jim

216
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 1: or yoga or a walk of some description one of

217
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: those three walk slash hike depending on the scenario. And

218
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: I love movement and exercise in the morning. But yeah,

219
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: it's hard for me to give you that right now

220
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: because if I'm being really honest, and you can probably tell,

221
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,199
Speaker 1: honesty is my like I'm just like, just be real, guys,

222
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:56,359
Speaker 1: So honesty's my whole thing, and it really it doesn't

223
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: I don't have a schedule right now. Are either of

224
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 1: us feeling homesick at all yet? I don't think so

225
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 1: we definitely miss the ability to be like, oh, let's

226
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 1: clock off at five today or four and go for

227
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,719
Speaker 1: a swim. We can't do that obviously. We don't live

228
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 1: anywhere need the ocean. And also I follow KTLA, which

229
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: is a news site here, and it's not safe to

230
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:25,679
Speaker 1: swim in the ocean here, like the bacteria's feral. So yeah,

231
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: so yeah, I would say the ocean we really really miss,

232
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: and just little things like I had such a good

233
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: like we had a great Mayo, we had really good

234
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 1: skincare you know, like really good saunas great, You're all

235
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: those kind of things that take time to build. We

236
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: don't have here. And so I would say, like those

237
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: kind of like wellness and health support things I kind

238
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 1: of miss. Now. My beautiful friend Ash said, oh, yes,

239
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: I want to know some teachings from acting school that

240
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: you have applied to real life. Absolutely, I'm actually getting

241
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 1: my notebook for Ash because there is so much stuff

242
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: that crosses over from acting school to real life, so

243
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: much stuff. The first one I would say is like

244
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: being curious, like one hundred percent, like if you're nervous,

245
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: and I've started using it in podcast land as well,

246
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 1: So our beautiful teacher says like if you're nervous for

247
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: a self tape. Just become curious about the person you're

248
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: reading with. Look at the color of their eyes, ask

249
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: them about how their day was. And if you kind

250
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: of like flip the focus from you, like, oh my god,

251
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: I'm going to stuff this up. Oh my god, I'm

252
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: not gonna and you kind of like get into that

253
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: like ham Swill in your head about keeping the curiosity there.

254
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: You're pulling the focus off you, and you're just being

255
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: really present with another human being. I think that is

256
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: so helpful in any realm of life. And I've found

257
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: sometimes I interview people on the pod and I get

258
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: really nervous to interview them, Like Damon Harriman. I interviewed

259
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks who's in the new Bike Riders

260
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: movie with Austin Butler. My brain was just blanking with

261
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: Austin Butler and Tom Hardy, and I was pretty nervous.

262
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: I was really really nervous, and like I blocked out

263
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: the whole day. It was like an hour and a

264
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: half interview. I blocked out the whole day. I was

265
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: so nervous, and I just sat down and just like

266
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: connected and asked about him. And that's essentially curiosity, and

267
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: so I love that concept. Was just like staying curious.

268
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: And our teacher says, authentic curiosity, so not faking it.

269
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 1: And I do think you can feel when it's fake

270
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: and so, and like I was saying, I was doing

271
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: I've been doing a lot of training this week, and

272
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, WHOA, Like, I just want to be real.

273
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: I don't want to I don't want to put a

274
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: facade or be fake at all. It's just not in

275
00:15:54,480 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: my nature. So yeah, authentic curiosity. What else have I

276
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: got here? I'm trying to read my notes I wrote

277
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: ages ago. If you don't have dialogue, then we're seeing

278
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: your emotional feelings, we're seeing your emotional core. Another thing

279
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: that lisaid to me when I last went up was

280
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: give yourself time to downregulate when your emotions downregulate in

281
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: scene as a character, essentially give yourself a moment to

282
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: be like, don't rush to like the next moment or

283
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: the next line. And I was like, oh, that's great feedback.

284
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: But if you think about that in life. I don't

285
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 1: know about you, but I can be reactive sometimes I

286
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 1: don't take that moment or that beat to be like Okay,

287
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 1: So this is how I'm feeling about this, And it

288
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: were like, although it was an acting feedback, I was like,

289
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: I can probably use this in my life as well.

290
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: What else have I got here? Know your character's morals?

291
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: I love that. Oh, I love that. We need to

292
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 1: see relationships in motion. Oh sorry, we need to relationships

293
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: in the memories. So like in acting school, we do

294
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: a lot of scenes that are like a relationship in

295
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: a sticky situation. A really good example was one scene

296
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: from last month was like two partners in their mid thirties.

297
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: The girl really wanted to have a baby and they

298
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 1: had always said no babies, and the boy was like, no, no,

299
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 1: we said no, and I'm still feeling that and she's like, well,

300
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 1: I've changed my mind. And so so you're seeing them

301
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,400
Speaker 1: in like a moment of conflict essentially in the scene.

302
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: But we need to still see the memory of when

303
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 1: they when it was sweet for them and when they

304
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: were in love, and they've obviously been together for five years.

305
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: There's all this history there, and she's like, we need

306
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 1: to be able to see the memory of it when

307
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 1: it was good. Oh, and I love this. We're never

308
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 1: talking about what we're talking about. That's the same in

309
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,159
Speaker 1: real life, right, we're never talking about what we're talking about.

310
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,639
Speaker 1: You'll say one thing in your brain and be like, hm, mmmm,

311
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: don't know about that. Same goes for obviously acting, keep

312
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:29,199
Speaker 1: moving yourself around the emotional chessboard so good, find breathing space,

313
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 1: walk away with big statements, and breathe again. In real life,

314
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: it stops you being so reactive. It gives you time

315
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: to kind of like go and let it all calibrate

316
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,159
Speaker 1: in your body. And I think I don't know about you.

317
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: I'm a feeling person, so I like to like be like,

318
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: why do I feel funky right now? And like I

319
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,679
Speaker 1: get stuck in my head and needs to be logical.

320
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: When if I give myself a moment to like walk away,

321
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: feel breathe, I can be like, hey, these things don't

322
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: feel right for me for these reasons. And same goes

323
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,679
Speaker 1: for acting. Like when a character gets a bit of

324
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 1: news that might be heavy or trigger them into reaction,

325
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: totally amazing. But and this isn't the first teacher say

326
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 1: I've had other teachers say like, take your time, Like,

327
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: take a bit of time. And I think when we're nervous,

328
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 1: we're like quick get through the dialogue anyway, Like I've

329
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 1: got so many flipper notes here. This is just one

330
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 1: of I've got three notebooks from acting class. It's so

331
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: it's really cool because these acting notes are also my

332
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: podcast notes, so there's stuff that I'm like flicking to

333
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: is so much fun. Oh, I could talk about this

334
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: stuff all day, flipping long. What else have I got here? Oh?

335
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: A private moment exists with the audience. I love that. Oh.

336
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 1: We had a few actors doing physical stuff, so they

337
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: were like try to like jump around the room before

338
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 1: the scene as like to prep for the scene because

339
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 1: it was like a high stake seed and they were

340
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 1: running around doing star jumps and all of that. And

341
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: the teachers said, add a sound so that it's all

342
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: kind of like calibrated, so it's like voice vocally and physically.

343
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 1: And also like think about you if you're stressed out

344
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh my god, I need a reset,

345
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: Like run to another room. If you're at home, run

346
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 1: to another room, like shake it out, like get out

347
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: the energy and then and make a sound and then

348
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 1: go back like reset yourself. They're all essentially like self

349
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: wellness tools and tools to help regulate yourself anyway. Ash

350
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: thank you that beautiful question. I know I wouldn't have

351
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,119
Speaker 1: even scratched the surface there, but I I should do

352
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: an episode where it's like stuff I've learned from acting

353
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: school that you can use in real life because it

354
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: is so fascinating. It's really just a study of human behavior. Honestly. Anyway,

355
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: my gang, I hope you like this EPP. I loved
